Making plant-based easy 

In a statement sent to Vegan Food & Living, Sarah Augustine, Squeaky Bean Co-Creator, said: “For too long, vegan lunchtime options have been considered bland and boring or too time consuming to create. Squeaky Bean is your sidekick in the kitchen!

“Our aim is to make plant-based easy. Now you can have a lunchtime to look forward to by opting for our range of tasty, ready-to-eat sandwich slices.”

Speaking about the new addition to the store’s vegan range, Charlotte McCarthy, Vegan Buyer at Waitrose & Partners added: “Veganism and plant-based eating continues to grow, with over a third of people in the UK looking to reduce their meat intake.

“Our vegan range has doubled over the last few years and we are constantly looking for new and innovative flavours and products which offer fantastic tasting vegan alternatives for our customers.”
